Delete none of the sources are anywhere near being reliable sources, let alone third party sources be even the most generous interpretations of such. There is also nothing that comes close to meeting the general guidelines evident in our music notability guidelines, which are the types of notability guidlines, requiring something more than just meeting the GNG, and rejecting articles that just scape by that low standard, that we really need to start incorporating in sports notability requirements.John Pack Lambert (talk) 04:32, 19 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
